DirectTV & TiVo

[timeshift]

I have DirectTV and Tivo Series 2 with 2 tuners. I was wondering if it is possible to record one channel while you watch another. If so (or not) please let me know how to do it, or if I am just out of luck??

Thank you in advance.

Welcome to SatelliteGuys! moved to Directv forum... I'm thinking only if you recorded OTA and from the Directv receiver at the same time... (I do not have a tivo)

Is it a regular Tivo or a Directivo? If it is a regular then it would only be able to record one thing period.

If it is a standalone TiVo you would need 2 D* receivers one for each tuner

And actually that won't even work well, since those are not capable of controlling 2 set-tops, so he would be very limited on what he could do with it then...
